Chapter 9
Grace stumbled into the car. Though the car heater was on, she didn’t feel warm.
She wrapped her arms around her body, feeling cold all over. She didn’t notice where the car was headed.
It was only until the car stopped at an unfamiliar parking lot that she snapped back to reality. “Why are we here?”
“It’s per Mr. Kaufman’s order.”
The driver said and immediately ran off.
Grace had a bad feeling instantly. She opened the car door and got out.
However, in the next second, someone covered her mouth from behind. She struggled a few times and soon lost
consciousness.
As she opened her eyes again, she saw that she was in a hotel
room.
The room was dimly lit, with a faint floral scent floating in the
air.
“You’re awake.”
Antonio walked to the bedside and looked at her with a half-
smile, his hands in his pockets.
Grace’s heart skipped a beat, and she recalled his absurd

request about the baby again.
“What are you doing, Antonio?”
Noticing the horror on her face, Antonio sneered, “What do you think I’m doing?
“You think I’m gonna force you to do it?
“Don’t flatter yourself, Grace. Even if you stripped naked in front of me, I wouldn’t go anywhere near you.”
Grace was uneasy. Antonio was so infatuated with Celeste, and she had no idea what he might do.
“Chill. I won’t let Antonio get his hands on you.”
Celeste walked out from somewhere, linked arms with Antonio, and looked down on Grace arrogantly.
Grace struggled to get up, but her body was weak all over.
She glared at Celeste. “What exactly are you up to?”
Celeste chuckled, her chuckle tinkling like a bell. “We want you to have a good time, of course.
“I specifically asked Antonio to pick you a disgusting old man to ensure you remember tonight forever.”
Antonio looked at Celeste with a gentle smile as if she were talking about something delightful.
“Antonio, if you really do this to me, I’ll never forgive you until the day I die!” Grace roared.
She was terrified indeed.

She knew Celeste hated her guts.

Over the past five years, Celeste had gone all out to humiliate and torment her.
And of course, she didn’t doubt Celeste would do such a cruel thing. Also, she knew better than anyone how much Antonio indulged Celeste.
Antonio said nonchalantly, “You really think your forgiveness means anything to me?
“Who are you to me? Why should I care about how you feel?”
Grace felt powerless and increasingly desperate.
Antonio’s indifference put out the last flicker of hope she had.
Pleased, Celeste lit a candle and placed it on the bedside table.
Leaning close to Grace’s ear, she whispered, “Grace, since you and I are such close friends, I added a little something to the candle to make you enjoy yourself even more.
“I’m sure it’s gonna be an unforgettable night.”
“Celeste!” Grace was so anxious that she was on the verge of
tears.
Yet, Celeste linked arms with Antonio again and waved at her. “Enjoy.”
Watching their retreating figures, Grace closed her eyes in despair.
Her desperate sobs filled the room.

At this moment, she truly experienced what it felt like to hate
someone.
She hated Antonio for his ruthlessness and indifference.
Just then, something clicked.
The door to the room opened, and she heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor.
She wanted to escape but had no strength. As the footsteps grew closer, she could only be engulfed by despair gradually.
